San Francisco State College "Staters" football team (Updated over a year ago)

You can view this bundle in the SFSU Photographic Timeline Project collection area.

With two new coaches, practically nowhere to practice, and twenty men who had never played college football, San Francisco "Staters" were still satisfied with their one victory, one tie, and six defeats in fall 1935. Front row seated (left to right): Bob Scharetg, Bob Newton, Kieth Cox, Norm Werner, Leland Armstrong, "Red" Thomson, Bill Eick, McDevitt, Katchinsky, and Morton; kneeling: Ralph Simon, Charlie Iago, Mason, and Ray Kaufman; standing: Coach Dan Farmer, Ralph Nathan, Art Rosen, Jim Barrett, Bill Harkness, Bolander, Darryl Hopkins, Ed Yee, Bud Glasgow, Traeger, Norm Kauer, George Powles, Valadez, Bill Plutte, Carl Block, George Bogdanoff, and Coach Hal Harden. San Francisco State played its first football game in 1932. Athletics was established the same year that San Francisco State Teachers College became San Francisco State College, as curriculum-based training for future high school coaches. Dean of Men Dave Cox started an expansion project to lease the Old Recreation Ball Park, the campus supplied lumber, and students employed by the National Youth Administration started work on what would become Roberts Stadium.
